Starting Fresh, Starting New...I've Moved, So Should You!

I know that I have not written in a while but I got caught up in life, like so many of us do!

But I think it is particularly important for everyone to say "Fuck YOU... I'm doing me!" every once in a while.

You should never feel guilty about taking me time. Believe me, it helps when you've had a long week, month, year, or even decade of always thinking about others and putting every one else first.

So some things have changed since a few months ago. So catch up...

I decided that I needed to follow my own advice and start living for me (See "New Directions" post).

So I did just that. I can say that I really have sacrificed everything that was going "good" to do BETTER!

Stepping outside of your comfort zones, challenges you to really think differently. 

If all you know is what you know, than you know nothing at all.

Remaining complacent in situations, careers, friendships and relationships, only hinders your potential to grow as an individual. Taking action to change your current situations, shows that you are making attempts to do something greater. Even if you do not succeed, you would have at least tired. Nothing is worst than playing the game of "What If." 

I've moved!

Literally, to another city.  

To a better career opportunity.

To a new beginning.

I've started taking those steps to do things differently.

Remaining in familiar territory for too long you eventually begin to blend in.

I've realized that I am a different stage in my life. One that is different from 6 months ago. One that has been progressing forward. I'm not the same person I was a few years ago. Because I've accepted change and I've grown to have a totally different thought pattern than before. Things that use to be so mundane, have begun to interest me. Things I thought I've never did, I've done. Things that I didn't like, I now love. 

I'm realizing that nothing last forever, especially the best of best friendships. No matter how long you know someone, I'm finding it true more and more that you truly never know someone or their intentions. I actually think the longer you know someone, the more likely you are to actually grow apart. Not everyone, but a large majority. Have you ever stopped and notice, that the older you get the less and less long-term friendships you still have? That's life, people sometimes grow a part rather than grow together.
